This study evaluates Rain Classroom, a modern educational platform, for hybrid learning in college English education by comparing language performance and student engagement in hybrid (n=33) and traditional (n=33) classrooms. Using a pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design, data from College English Test (CET) scores and engagement scales were analyzed via independent t-tests. The hybrid group demonstrated significant CET improvements in listening (t(64) = -2.10, p = .04), reading (t(64) = -3.84, p < .001), and writing/translation (t(64) = -2.52, p = .01), along with higher engagement across agentic (t(64) = -5.99, p < .01), behavioral (t(64) = -3.02, p < .01), cognitive (t(64) = -9.35, p < .01), and emotional (t(64) = -5.10, p < .01) domains. The findings highlight the effectiveness of hybrid learning in improving language proficiency and student engagement, providing educators and institutions with a scalable model for blended instruction.
